You can get it to say "Buy" in red if you change your local time an hour in the future.

But, you cannot check out.

I'll be getting one just to see it in person. decide what to do with it then, since i dont think im a fan of the wonky helmets.

 

[Shalamar]

I'm curious to see how long they'll sell out. First offering from a new company, and no waiting...

I don't have the space for it (My collection room is getting crowded), but it sure looks nice.

 

[Darth Rage]

Got mine

 

[icruise]

Well, I ordered one just because I happened to be around at the time they were available. I have no doubt that they will sell out fairly soon.

BTW the site wouldn't let me check out using my account. Every time I tried to log in, it gave me an "exception" and spewed some code out. But I was able to complete the order by "ordering without an account." Problems like these might be affecting the rate that it's selling out.

Shipping to Hawaii is ridiculous at $100. I'll wait for the Hero version.

 

[Darth Rage]

Funny thing is when the timer ran out it restarted initially, with product available in 11 months 23 hours etc.

forbidden planet, uk site, £299 English Pounds, cheaper than buying direct and shipping to the UK.

Apparently people in Canada are being charged outrageous shipping -- close to $200, so most of them are passing (obviously).

Hey Mooncat, you can send me $399 + $300 for shipping and I'll get you one! That's half off the shipping price!

 

[icruise]

I thought it showed shipping before I confirmed.

same here, not sure what mooncat is talking about.

 

[jason2885]

I got one because it looked cool. They charged me like $36 for shipping and I thought that was way to much.

 

[icruise]

Yeah, people on Rebelscum are complaining about the shipping (not just the international people). Apparently it's around three times what MR used to charge.

"International Buyers" had to click and "Accept Terms and Conditions button" in their processing

shipping wasnt displayed

I must admit I was trying to place my order as quickly as I could and speed reading given the way it was launched and sold, however I know had I seen $600 as a shipping charge in the process as I was placing the order, I wouldnt have

First I saw was "Print Invoice"

Processing aside

I mean c'mon ffs $600 ???

I know my shipping quote isnt as high as that, but for being in the SAME country, $100 to ship a 10lb item is pretty significant and a deal breaker for me.

 

[Mooncat]

The way the thing was launched and the way it was processed left me thinking

CON

I was on to my credit card company as soon as I could

I did that as well, but that's before you actually confirm the order.

You don't actually think it's a con do you? Come on.
